2. I get Paramount+ as part of my cable package, or otherwise I wouldn't have it.

It's probably the streaming service I watch the most. When it originally aired, I didn't watch DS9. At the time I thought 'It's Star Trek, but they don't go anywhere? No thanks.' Fortunately, I've now just about finished it and I'm happy to say I was very, very wrong about that show.

I like SNW, especially compared to some of the other dreck they've produced recently, with Discovery the prime offender. Still, it doesn't have quite the right tone. I don't like having flippant, smart-ass ensigns on the bridge. Picard would never have stood for that. Stop with the Joss Whedon-smart-ass-dialogue and have them act like professionals. Refer to the conduct of the crew on TNG if you need a primer.
